Current prerelease is 1.2.5
1.2.4 is the first to introduce experimental Wayland support. Especially on KDE Plasma there are supposed to be some issues.
Lets test!
Why?
Regular RDP/VNC programs are hard to use in real scenarios, as they rely on IP addresses. RustDesk is easier as it uses a Rendezvouz server that can also be selfhostet or reimplemented.
I hope to God that RustDesk doesn’t get corrupted or enshitified because I absolutely love it.
Been using it for remote assistance at my workplace for about a year now and it’s been almost flawless. By far the most responsive and easy to use remote access solution I’ve used, (and I’ve used a lot.)
I use it with my family across the country to do remote support for their family computer too. It is small, lightweight, fast, handles multiple screens like a charm, and I don’t think I’ve ever had connection issues, even when on really slow network connections.
